Description
Join us as we explore Abbey Gardens’ bee yard, gardens and natural areas with Pauline Plooard, Master Gardener, Naturalist and Bee Keeper. We will learn that those that “buzz” are not all bees and there is a difference between native bees and honey bees. Pauline will share her expertise on garden design for pollinators and their importance. Come and hear all about bees, their important role as pollinators and learn about the plants and flowers they enjoy
This walk is led by Pauline Plooard who is a member of the Haliburton Highlands Field Naturalists, a Master Gardener, and was a beekeeper for over 30 years. She is, and has also been interested in all aspects of the outdoors; whether it is the rocks, the flora or fauna, the sky, or underwater species.
All workshops are limited to 9 individuals or “family bubble” of 1:1 adult to child to allow for proper physical distancing (2m, 6ft) to enhance safety during these challenging times of COVID-19. To register a “family bubble” register as one but add or email a note indicating that you are registering an adult (name) and a child (name and age).
All registrants are required to have a Health Check List completed on the day of each workshop prior to participating.
We will be meeting under the tents in the garden.
